2160.0. "dna_decdns_createns fails V3.2B" by CHEFS::DAVIDSONS () Wed Apr 09 1997 20:46

    Following script shows that dna_decdns_createns fails.
    This sequence of 'decnetsetup advanced' followed by
    'dna_decdns_createns' on DNS server worked OK with DNU V3.2A
    
    (DNU V3.2A subsets were deleted before V3.2B installed, also
    contents of /var/dss/dns removed)
    
    Any ideas?

Registering the node: local:.osi.ods_lan.omc4



The configuration of DECnet/OSI is completed.

You can test DECnet functionality with the utility /usr/sbin/dnet_check .
This performs various local and remote functions, and requires an
account (and password) on this system and one other DECnet node.
After verifying that the system is operating properly with DECnet
installed you may wish to remove the following saved files:
    - /var/dna/scripts/start_*.ncl.sav[n]

The DECnet/OSI for Digital UNIX (formerly DEC OSF/1) on-line release notes may
be found at:

	/usr/share/dna/DECnet_release_notes

Note: This node has been configured to use the Local Namespace.
      If you wish to add, modify, or delete a node or its
      associated addressing information, you should use the
      utility /usr/sbin/decnet_register to add or change definitions.
      You may also use the /usr/sbin/update_nodes utility
      to copy a Phase IV nodes database or Phase V LNO load
      file from a remote system, as in the following example:

            /usr/sbin/update_nodes -dlocal 4.1002

      This command will copy a DECnet address file from the remote
      system, and automatically populate the local naming file.
      Please refer to the installation guide for further details.

You may run /usr/sbin/osiapplsetup to configure the
OSI Applications (FTAM and Virtual Terminal).

omc4# dna_decdns_createns


There will be a pause while this procedure gathers some
information from your system.

  Do you wish to create a new namespace? (y/n) [n] y

The namespace nickname is the name given to the collection of
data stored among the distributed DECdns servers.  Please enter
the name of the DECdns namespace you wish to create.

  What is your namespace nickname? [No Default]: MADAP_ONL

The clearinghouse contains all the data stored by the DECdns server.
It must be given a name, and this name will itself be stored in
the namespace as an object in the root directory.  You may accept
the default clearinghouse name offered below, or enter a namee
of your own choosing.

  Enter a name for the clearinghouse: [root_ch]

Please review the following information which you have supplied, and if
it is correct enter "Continue", which will invoke the DECdns server
software and create the namespace.  If there is incorrect information,
or you wish to change a particular value, enter "Quit" and rerun this
procedure.

Namespace Nickname:		MADAP_ONL

Clearinghouse Name:		root_ch

  Do you wish to complete this configuration? [continue]
Creating the MADAP_ONL namespace.

Your default namespace nickname is MADAP_ONL.

Create Group error: Cannot display detailed error text.

dnsCreateGrp call failed - please submit an SPR.
Arch error = 536864024, Local status = 0


Having created a new namespace, the initial directories will be
created.  You will be informed of any additional tasks to perform,
which can be done after this procedure is completed.
Disabling and re-enabling the dns server.  May take a couple minutes.

Create the initial namespace directories.
Press Control-D at any question to cancel the initialization.

* Will any Phase IV nodes participate in the network [y/n, Def=y]: n

The DECdns namespace groups and directories will now be created.  This might
take up to 4 minutes or more, depending on the speed of the DECdns
server system and the amount of traffic on the network.

Creating the MADAP_ONL:.DNA_Registrar group.

Note - If the directory creation error was due to insufficient access
       rights, ensure that the correct access is set on both the parent
       directory and on the appropriate clearinghouse, using the DECdns
       control program commands:

           add directory access
           add clearinghouse access

Note - If the directory creation error was due to insufficient access
       rights, ensure that the correct access is set on both the parent
       directory and on the appropriate clearinghouse, using the DECdns
       control program commands:

           add directory access
           add clearinghouse access

Creating the MADAP_ONL:.DTSS_GlobalTimeServers directory.
Error on entity: MADAP_ONL:.DTSS_GlobalTimeServers

Note - If the directory creation error was due to insufficient access
       rights, ensure that the correct access is set on both the parent
       directory and on the appropriate clearinghouse, using the DECdns
       control program commands:

           add directory access
           add clearinghouse access


DECdns namespace initialization for DECnet use is complete.

* Press RETURN to continue

If this is the first time you have initialized the namespace for DECnet
use, use decnet_dns_register to:

  - Create any directories you need for node names that should be registered
    immediately, according to your transition plan.  This includes the node
    you are currently running on.

  - Register the local node.

* Press RETURN to continue

Continue to use decnet_dns_register to:

  - Create any additional directories you need for node names, as you add
    new nodes to the network according to your transition plan.

  - Register new nodes as they are brought up on the network.

  - Add members to the MADAP_ONL:.DNA_Registrar access control group.

Additionally, you can use the DECdns control utility to:

  -  Add specific access control to individual directories, objects, and
     soft links.

  -  Create replicas of directories.

* Press RETURN to continue

The following creations failed:

     Group:       MADAP_ONL:.DNA_Registrar
     Directory:   MADAP_ONL:.DNA_BackTranslation
     Directory:   MADAP_ONL:.DNA_NodeSynonym
